Portfolio: Samples of our work
Zoe Rooney
Zoe has always been an artist, crafter, and maker. She has degrees in art and education, and has been messing about with web design for about 15 years (fun fact: her first website was a Geocities page, which she created in middle school), designing professionally for about 7 years. She lives in a big old creaky house with her husband, two little boys, and a very large dog.

"So great to work with, I hired them for a second project. I highly recommend them.
It was worth the investment because I have a seamlessly functioning website that looks beautiful. It saves me SO MUCH TIME compared to building a site myself, and updating the (poorly constructed) site I built myself. For me, it's worth the peace of mind that everything looks great and is working.
The site looks so professional that sometimes it's actually been a hindrance in my industry - people think my company is bigger than it is, and they value small, family businesses and overlook me. I have to reiterate that my business is JUST ME to many people. I have to say, though, I'd rather have that problem than have a site that looks home made."

Lauren designed the site and Zoe coded it, adding some cool features like the lightbox reviews, video slideshow, and custom look of all form fields. This Paper Ship were called in to create some chalkboard lettering announcing the shop.
LoveLeeSoaps
"I have been so anxious waiting to show everyone the new website. I could not be happier with the final outcome. It would not have been possible without Jessika Hepburn & Team Aeolidia. They have made all my visions, ideas, and thoughts come true! I am so excited to see what is in store for the future of LoveLeeSoaps and I feel like this new site is just what we needed. We are thrilled to now offer larger quantities, gift certificates, wishlists, behind the scenes peeks, and a blog where we can connect and share thoughts each week.
Every step to the process was easy, smooth, and so much fun. The entire team was there immediately to help when needed and answered all of my questions. I could not be more happy with all of the work that Aeolidia has done for my business and would highly recommend them to anyone that is interested!"

We started with the logo and printed branding materials, and created a warm and elegant site that is professional yet still personal.

"Aeolidia designed and implemented our previous website two years ago, and when it became time to upgrade yet again, I didn't consider asking anyone else. What we thought would be a simple "tweak" turned into a major relaunch, with re-branding happening simultaneously.
Aeolidia has a crack team from which they hand-pick the best designer to work on your project, and Mariah didn't disappoint. I sent her my cut-and-scotch taped mockup of what I wanted the logo to be, and she finessed it into a slick (but not TOO slick) logo. She helped me negotiate with printing specialists (something I don't think all graphic designers do), and was always available to answer my tech-ignorant questions without making me feel embarrassed about my lack of digital savvy.
I'm a tough person to please, but Mariah was patient through the many re-designs, and seriously impressed me with her invention of a historically-inspired letterhead design. She helped keep the new logo and look integrated with the site's relaunch to complete our brand's total makeover.
Next up: Aeolidia's doing our lookbook. My advice to other business owners: don't be afraid of working with Aeolidia over email instead of in person (or over the phone). An archive and online hub for your projects are ESSENTIAL."

Denise designed the logo and some illustrations, Lauren designed a minimal, yet playful site design, and Zoe made it just about perfect on the front and back ends!
Spring Creek Ranch
"I admit that it took a few years to convince myself that redesigning our website would be worth the financial investment, another year to decide which web design company to go with and all of ONE INSTANT to utter the word, "PERFECT" when I saw Sarah Moule's mock up for Spring Creek Ranch.
Working with Aeolidia has felt like being ushered onto a team full of creative, motivated and incredibly professional team players. From start to finish I always felt like my questions were answered in a thorough and timely fashion and when I needed a hand to hold (and oh, did I ever) I always found one outstretched and available.
I can't really say enough about Sarah Moule's design capability. It is obvious to me that she takes her job very seriously and that she did a ton of research before coming up with the SCR design. I know she read through my entire questionnaire and perhaps our entire blog history- how else could she have known about my passion for film and understand my desire to present Spring Creek Ranch as a place where memories are made as well as just a nice place to lay your head. I felt like the little touches of her design (the dark framing edges- so much like a Kodak film reel) and the negative version of barn board were on the verge of brilliant. Where I live just about every other site has some form of wood or barn wood as part of their website, but I have never seen the negative version used and I thought the black and white made the site feel modern and historical at the same time. How does one do that? I thought Sarah M figured out the most perfect way to do just that.
And her blog design for SCR was so great. I felt like she was able to keep the design consistent with the rest of the site while imbibing a perfect story book quality to the blog page.
Zoe's commitment to providing exactly what I wanted (hello amenities page!) was grand and I totally appreciate her ability to find a solution rather than just saying, eh thats too hard. And does that woman ever sleep? I must have emailed with her at night, on weekends, early mornings and she seemed to always be working! The times she shared my screen really helped me and I appreciate her patience as her technological savvy must have found my computer alliteration a wee bit tiresome at times.
Her dedication to finding solutions for the site really was great. The bnbmanager that she recommended as an online booking agent- they are fantastic!
I am beyond satisfied with my experience at Aeolidia and can't think of bringing my next project any other place but here. If you'll take me!
Thanks again everyone. I have gotten SO many compliments on the site- I really appreciate all of you committing to this project and helping me through the process.
All the best, Sarah Berns Spring Creek Ranch, Proprietor"
